such topics banking. and currency. and
foreign relations, and commerce, and coast de-
fenses, the increase in the navy, the public

throws light the discussion, or explains
the why and the wherefore. On all important
French questions the Partisan newspaper editors
are obliged to quote his letters, which complete
their own information when they do not antici-

discuss the merits of Bordeaux and Burgundy

The home of the Times correspondent is in
the Rue de Tllsitt, not far from the hotel of our
countrywoman, Mrs. Mackay. There, aided by
his wife. who is Provencal lady, Nj. de Blowitz
receives and entertans all the leading men in
social literary, artistic and political life. From
time to time he opens his salon to introduce to
the outside world some debutante in literature,
music or art in whom he has discovered some
special talent Bowitz's- hobby, is faence,

world, and mementoes of various kinds that he
has received from eminent persons. His weak

lis vanity, which he acknowledges. and ascribes
to his Slavonic origin. He is prouder of the
twenty thirty decorations he has received
than all his Journalistic exploits, and when you
call upon him he will linger fondly over some
anecdote relating to how he had obtained such
such decoration. But this is slight de-
feet: and that does not in the least interfere
with his being the greatest living newspaper

Colds and the severest Lung troubles.
1t acts on an entirely different
principal from the usual prescrip-

not dry up Cough and leave the
disease still in the system, but on
the contrary removes the cause of
the trouble, heals the parts affected
and leaves them in purely healthy

A cyclone visited st. Clairsville
and Martins Ferry, Ohio, between
3 and 4 p. m, on the 18th, blowing
down houses and trees. We con-
dense the InteUigeacey's account of
it:
For an hour previous to its com
ING the air had been thick and sultry
and darkness almost equal to dusk
prevailed. The sky to the West
had dull, copper cast. Suddenly
a breeze began to blow and then
came shrill, whistling sound that
rapidly increased to terrible roar.
The people began to take alarm;
they rushed out into the streets and
looked in the direction from which
the noise came. What they saw
filled them with terror. a black,
double funnel-shaped cloud was
approaching with appalling
rapidity. AS it whirled along
nothing seemed to stand before
its fury. Huge oaks that had
stood for years were leYeled as
though they had been straws. The
air was filled with roofs, broken tim
bers and debris of all kinds. The
cries of alarm and the roar that pre-
coded the cloud gave sufficient warn
ing and nearly all persons reached
some sheltered spot before the wind
burst on St. Clairsville. One hun
dred houses in st. Clairsville and
seventy five in Martins Ferry we're
damaged more or less and number
of them were completely destroyed.
